Short description of error
After enabling a few extras in Developer Extras/Experimental, the app crashed and immediately crashes on relaunch. Re-installed several times. I can submit the crash report.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
As described above. I can't find the preference file. Is there a shortcut that enables Factory Settings???

Locate the installation folder and run the file blender_factory_startup

Or running blender from a command line with --factory-startup as argument

If crash continues could you provide more info about what experimental features causes crash?
Although I don't know if experimental feature reports are accepted.

Locate the installation folder and run the file `blender_factory_startup` ![image](/attachments/ed9f9794-e26b-4dc9-ab44-2695935fc95c) Or running blender from a command line with `--factory-startup` as argument If crash continues could you provide more info about what experimental features causes crash?

Guillermo, you set me on the right path

FOUND AND FIXED!!

Look here, but make sure you can see invisible files [Command + Shift + . (the period key)]:

macOS: /Users/Username/Library/Application Support/Blender/4.0/config

Delete "startup.blend" and "userpref.blend" and restart.

GREAT SUCCESS!

BTW, can I get rid of those MASSIVE folders from previous versions?

It seems some experimental feature has triggered the crash. Could enable them one by one for identifying the culprit?

BTW, can I get rid of those MASSIVE folders from previous versions?

Yes, you can if you're not using them anymore.
